Gary Hamel On Trending Leadership Stories And Business News
Zombie buildings, the end of the great resignation, Elon Musk, & more!
My guest today is the brilliant, sharp-witted, and funny Gary Hamel! He’s a professor at the London School of Business, best-selling author, and one of the world’s top business thinkers. Gary is a repeat guest on the show and today we’re doing something that I’ve never done before, and that is focus on current leadership and business news, something that many listeners have asked me to do.
The format is that I pulled together a few trending leadership and business stories and Gary and I talk about them and share our opinions. Gary had no advance notice of the stories I was going to ask him which made it even more fun!
